Create Qlik Sense Enterprise data source

1. Navigate to Settings > Data Ingestion > Data Sources.
2. Click New data source.
   • 
3. Select your system and the newly created connection.
4. Name your source (and add a description) for easier identification in Dawiso.

Scope the scan

By default, Dawiso scans every stream and app the connected identity can access. Because the Engine API opens each app individually, narrowing the scope can significantly shorten ingestion in large environments. In this step you can optionally limit what is scanned:

1. Application IDs: Scan only specific apps. Provide a comma-separated list of app GUIDs.
   • Do not include spaces or invalid characters.
   • Separate GUIDs with commas only (e.g. 0d8bfe1e-9a2e-4b2c-98b6-12df4456b123,5ac4fd33-bef3-47f2-912d-17aa4e9e3410).
   • Leave empty to scan all apps.
2. Include Streams: Scan only apps in these streams. Provide a comma-separated list of stream names. Leave empty to include all streams.
3. Exclude Streams: Skip apps in these streams. Provide a comma-separated list of stream names. Exclusion takes precedence over inclusion: a stream listed in both is excluded.

Editing the scope of an existing data source

If you change the scope of a data source that has already been ingested:

• Apps that newly come into scope are ingested on the next run.
• Apps that fall out of scope are treated as deleted. Dawiso removes their metadata on the next run, including any user-provided content such as descriptions, ownership, or relations linked to those apps.

Destination configuration

In the Destination configuration step:

1. Select into what space you want to store your ingested metadata. You can select only the spaces you have access to.
2. Select the workflow for ingested objects management. For more information on workflows, see the article on Workflow types.
3. [Optional steps]
   • Schedule: To customize the regular automated ingestion, check the box next to Schedule and adjust the frequency.
   • Optional Settings: Specify options supported by the provider in JSON format. Option will be made available based on feedback. For more information, see Optional Settings. |
   • Additional Settings: Add a JSON formatted list of additional settings that can be used to troubleshoot your custom scenarios. We recommend leaving this field empty unless our Dawiso support team suggests otherwise.
   • Enable AI-Generated Descriptions: Enable AI-generated descriptions for your ingested metadata. Descriptions will be generated according to prompts that are defined in packages. Each attribute type can have its own configurable prompt and any AI-generated content will be clearly marked with a banner the text is manually reviewed and saved.
     • Descriptions will be generated on the following levels: database, schema, view, and table.
4. Save your data source.

Run ingestion

Once you create your data source, you will be redirected to a list of your data sources.

1. Click the three dots next to your newly created source, and select Run ingestion.
2. Confirm to ingest your data.

You can find all new, running, or completed ingestions by navigating to Settings > Data Ingestion > Ingestions.
